IF Statement, how to include variable for empty

[jasper1106]

Hello all,

 

I am a beginner at PHP and trying to form an IF statement, I'm running into a problem which I cannot seem to solve.

Due to my lack of syntax knowledge I would appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction.

 

The combo variables are sent to this page through a form and defined as these variables at the top of the page.

e.g $combo0 = $_POST["combo0"];

 

When the results are displayed any form field which was left blank or empty I want to show "N/A" if data is detected in being sent through the form I then want the "Else" statement to take affect.

 

Currently when I run the below statement N/A is echoed despite if data was sent through the form fields or not....

 

if (empty($scrap))  {
echo "<h3>Submitted Scrap Results</h3> No scrap parts were booked off";
}				
elseif (empty($combo0) || empty($combo1) || empty($combo2) || empty($combo3) || empty($combo4)) {
echo "N/A";
}
else {
echo "<h3>Submitted Scrap Results</h3> <b>Reason:</b> " .$combo0." - ".$combo1." - ".$combo2." - ".$combo3." - ".$combo4."
<br /> <b>on machine</b> " .$mid. " - <b>No. Scrap</b> " .$noscrap. "";
}

 

Anyone any ideas?

are all the fields named and assigned appropriately?
